| May 8, 2017 at 8:28 | comment | added | rainman | If $\phi$ is an odd scalar function, then $\phi(-\vec{r}) = - \phi(\vec{r})$. | |

| May 8, 2017 at 8:15 | comment | added | user143678 | How can $\phi (-r)$ be $-\phi (r)$. Isn't $\phi$ a scalar and independent of the orientation of $\vec{r}$ | |
